Pros

The benefits are great and include medical, dental, 401K and pension.

Cons

As a branch manager, you are treated like they own you. You are expected to follow scripts for everything and hound customers immediately upon entering the branch. Middle management is instructed to keep close control on branch personnel, beginning with the branch manager, who in turn is expected to rule with a tight fist. They also expect everyone in the branch to be happy and helpful to customers, while trying to sell them additional services that they don't want or need.

Pros

-location & team are important. I had an amazing team and location. Rare, but amazing for making money when aligned. -you can learn the financial industry -reputable company, great CEO -you are highly compensated to win over affluent families banking/wealth/lending relationships.

Cons

-we have 5 managers and each of them get replaced bi-annually. -The management hired does not know anything about finance, yet tasked to manage financial professionals. Zero standards for recruitment. Imagine this: An accounting firm is looking for a new accountant. The manager goes out and hires 5 "accountants" but not a single one of them is a CPA. You think, "how could this happen?" That's JPMC for you. -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS.***
